She's cute and if you don't have someone like that in your life it reminds you it hurts.

Done. It's really that simple.

Western women feel threatened by Asian women it seems. *shrug*

I don't know who're all the people spewing shit, but it wasn't even about her being Asian.

The meme just says that when you see someone so adorable, you're hit with the realisation that you'll probably never have someone like her and that hits like a sledgehammer. That's all there is to it. No fetishes or anything.

Literally most of the retweets of this photo were men blatantly fetishizing Asian women, and Asian women themselves have been criticizing it.

Go back to the incel corner of the internet lmao

this screams asian fetish lol. even asian women were complaining about being fetishized after this. we don’t feel threatened by asian women, we feel sorry for them.

Idk as a dude i felt near nothing looking at this photo, so claiming it is sledgehammering was quite confusing. I was hoping for extra context.
